In-Laws

2002 - 2003 NR 30m 6.8

A newly married man moves into his wife's parents' house to save money, only to have his life completely taken over by her father (Dennis Farina).

After penniless cook Matt Landis marries businessman Victor Pellet's spoiled daughter Alex, they agree to save money for his dream to start his own restaurant by moving in with the Pellets. This starts years of aggravation for 'outsider' Matt, mainly because Alex's dad is domineering and keeps a strong, overprotective hold over his daughter. Futhermore, various habits and attitudes keep clashing.
